The Art Of

Usually only of interest to hardcore or
label variation collectors, Sears Tele-Games cartridges are an often overlooked
part of the 2600 library. This is a shame because while the games
may be exactly the same as their Atari counterparts, the artwork is often
very different. Unfortunately most people never get to see this
unique artwork because Sears boxes and manuals are hard to find, picture
label carts are rare, and the most common games have the same artwork
as the Atari version. Many people collect for years without ever
knowing of the alternate artwork until they accidentally stumble across
a cart and think they've found a new game. During my many years
of collecting I've built up quite an interesting collection of this alternative
artwork so I though I would put them together on a page with the original
Atari artwork for easy comparison. So without further ado, welcome
to the Art of Sears Tele-Games.
